United Nude is an English shoe brand that produces accessories, women's and men's shoes with incredible architecture. Shoes from this manufacturer began to win the hearts of our compatriots relatively recently, but there is clearly progress. Today, more and more fashionistas decide to spend a lot for the sake of a pair of extravagant clogs, shoes or United Nude ankle boots.
History of United Nude
I want to look at these shoes, flip through photo catalogs and advertising booklets for a long time. In our world, where, it would seem, everything has long been invented and discovered, the creators of the brand really managed to come up with something completely extraordinary.
The brand, so unlike anything else, was the result of the collaboration of architect Rem Koolhaas and hereditary shoemaker Galahard Clark, who comes from the family of the founders of the Clarks brand.
Celebrity Models
Rem's first creation was the Möbius shoe model with an incredible sole and heel. Later, United Nude clogs and ankle boots were also released with the same architecture.
Debuted in 2003. The Möbius model was the first to be presented to the public. Today, these shoes are considered a legend of the brand, a living classic that does not lose its relevance even 15 years after its creation.
Rem and Galahard have collaborated with many talented designers and artists on numerous occasions. For Iris Van Herpen, the brand created shoes designed for fashion shows 9 times. Together with the architect Zaha Hadid, Ram designed the NOVA ankle boots (2013), which are shown in the following photo.
United Nude creates shoes for those who are not afraid to shine and attract attention. It is simply impossible not to recall the eccentric Lady Gaga here. The pop diva is indeed an ardent fan of Ram's work. Especially for her, an incredible model of ankle boots was invented, which received the name Fame. The shoes are made from the finest quality leather, dyed deep black. Featuring a high platform and stiletto heels, these ankle boots are adorned with gold-tone figures of climbing men.
The unique Lo Res series also deserves attention. It includes several models that resemble either precious crystals or an unprofessional pixelated photo of “normal” shoes. The creators joke that they originally made ordinary shoes, and then scanned them and printed them in low resolution.
Another famous feature of the brand is the inverted heel. It's like it's growingfrom the foot parallel to the ground, and not from the heel, as expected, perpendicular. The design looks very unusual, but it seems to many that it is completely unstable. You should not be afraid, because a professional architect worked on it.
But don't think that all United Nude shoes are too fancy to be worn in everyday life. Today, the brand continues to advance, confidently winning its place under the sun. Products are sold in more than 40 countries around the world.

- Ts Tsvetnoy, Tsvetnoy Boulevard, 15.

Prices
In reviews of United Nude, there are often references to the fact that the main drawback of all brand products is a rather high price. The price tag for a pair of ankle boots starts at 12,000 rubles. Some models, especially cult and widely advertised, are even more expensive - in the range of 40 thousand.
The high cost is due not only to the popularity of the brand and cool design, but also to excellent quality. The company practically does not use leatherette, preferring genuine leather. It is from this noble material that both the upper and the inside of the shoe are made, andinsole.
Reviews
It can be difficult to decide on such a purchase. But as many owners of United Nude booties assure, it is simply impossible not to fall in love with these shoes. Excellent cut, the utmost accuracy of workmanship, high-quality seams and expensive fittings and a comfortable last are the perfect additions to the stylish design.
Excellent product shows itself in the process of operation. According to many shoe owners, even the high height and unusual shape of the heels do not affect comfort. Walking in such shoes is pleasant and very comfortable. But, according to many girls, the decision to purchase United Nude ankle boots is only for those who are not shy, being in the spotlight, and are not shy about admiring exclamations.
